Some of you may have skittles at home but, if not, why not try to make your own? It’s a great game for strengthening your muscles, improving your control and developing your hand-eye co-ordination.
All you need are some empty bottles and small balls (or socks).
- Add some water to each of the bottles to help them stand up.
- Arrange your bottles on the floor.
- Roll your socks into balls if you have no balls at home.
- Roll the ball towards the skittles and see how many you can knock down.
Think about what would happen if you added more water to the bottles.
What would happen if you moved further away from the skittles?
Why not write some numbers on the bottles then see who can make the biggest number when you add up your scores?
